NBC/CBS news claim about his foreign military training are starting to sound very questionable if this is same high school kid they are reporting to be suspect #1.



Apparently they are from Russia.

Or else he's a foreign guy with paramilitary training. Take your pick of sources

I have even less faith in our news media now than I did yesterday. Which was not much to begin with.

they've been in the US since 2002 with their family

Drudge is headlining they have been in US for 1 year. But then Drudge is notorious for pushing bogus news sometimes even if we reserve judgment on this for now. Although he's not as big a bogus news merchant as he used to be before/soon after Iraq invasion.

the networks are saying 10 years with their family.. .we'll see in due course..

His class fellow from school Sierra Schwartz is on ABC news now, she is saying he was an honors student, star athlete and had lot of friends. She is shocked.

Older sibling’s role in Boston attack stuns boxing circles

Tamerlan Tsarnaev towered over boxing champ Micky Ward at the 2006 Golden Gloves competition in Lowell.




They knew him as Tom, a boxing prodigy who rubbed *elbows with the great Micky Ward, trained under Mike *Tyson’s former coach, and fought his way to local glory by capturing the Rocky Marciano Trophy in 2010 as New England’s Golden Gloves heavyweight champ.

Tom was born Tamerlan Tsarnaev, and he struck the boxing coaches who knew him best as a budding Renaissance man.


“In the ring, he could knock a man out with one punch,’’ said Gene McCarthy, founder of the Somerville Boxing Club. “But when he sat at a piano, he could play classical music like you wouldn’t believe.’’

“He was an amazing boxer, one of the best in New *England,’’ said John Allan, owner of the Wai Kru martial arts gym in Allston, where Tsarnaev often trained as a young fighter. “He wasn’t a professional, but he would floor the top professionals in New England’’ in *unofficial boxing matches.

All these differing narratives don't make sense.

Talk about a school with a range of diversity. My high school's list would have looked like: Adam Brown, Melissa Smith, Jacob Thompson, etc. I can't read about 15 of those above.

No, it doesn't make sense. And it took a single homeowner/renter to be released from home detention to find the 2nd suspect. Cops then fired a huge number of rounds at a boat and missed, while the kid was balled up in a pool of his own blood, from a previous wound, in the boat. This is too surreal.

Yet all the commentors on the Yahoo news stories want to immediately lynch the kid.
